Mitchell Cookson Gallery

My name is mitchell Cookson. I am Native American artist from Oklahoma. My style goes from funny illustration to raw, emotional pieces. I like to keep my creatives juices flowing by switches up styles to stay fresh and enthusiastic. I began drawing my own creation of Bigfoot placed in satirical situations and I expanded on my artistic vision by doing abstract pieces that came from the nether regions of my mind. I let my art ID become The Oklahoma Bigfoot. I have self-published five children's books, I have done enough paintings to fill a few galleries, and I have my own website: theoklahomabigfoot.com . I began art at an early age of six by drawing old classic cars and by age eight, I began to draw native American portraits. I relished the realism in my work until I discovered there was more to art then the world around me. When I realized there was a world within me to draw inspiration from, i let my mind go wild. There is no limit to my style, my subject matter, or my thoughts on the world around me, I simply do what intrigues me.
